Sudan is considering joining OPEC oil cartel: official
December 21, 2009 (KHARTOUM) – The Sudanese government announced today that it is considering joining the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC), as a full fledged member, the country’s deputy energy minister said Monday.
The Sudanese official has said that his country is currently producing about 500,000 barrels a day of oil and expects to maintain this level of output next year.
Joining OPEC is a prestigious step for oil producing nations but for other countries it carries with it the unnecessary burden of adhering to production quotas though its members have routinely violated it.
OPEC is made up of 13 countries, including Saudi Arabia and Iran, which have the biggest reserves in the world.

The Khartoun govt is discrimating the price of oil because they know that South will take their oil avenues with them and they will remained with nothing in the North.
SPLM must be very keen on how NCP handle oil revenue for this few months left. Otherwise the sell of oil need to be stopped for awhile untill Sudan confirm unity or separation.
